| 1 | BTNS_SEP, TBSTYLE_SEP | A separator, providing a small gap between button groups. |
| 2 | BTNS_CHECK, TBSTYLE_CHECK | A dual-state push button that toggles between the pressed and un-pressed states each time the user clicks it. |
| 4 | BTNS_GROUP, TBSTYLE_GROUP | When combined with BTNS_CHECK, a button stays pressed until another button in the group is pressed. |

A complete list of the available styles and style constants is given in the Toolbar Control and Button Styles topic of the MSDN library.
Remarks
You can specify the desired control’s item by assigning item’s caption, identifier or position on the control to the Item parameter. Therefore, if this parameter holds a string, TestComplete identifies the item by caption. When Item specifies the caption, you can use wildcards (* and ?) or regular expressions to mark variable parts of the caption. The caption can be case-sensitive or case-insensitive depending on the value of the Use case-sensitive parameters project setting. If Item holds an integer value, then TestComplete checks the ByPosition parameter to determine in what way to identify the item: if ByPosition is True, TestComplete treats the Item value as the item position; if ByPosition is False, TestComplete treats the Item value as an identifier.
If you use Python or DelphiScript, you should enclose the parameters of the wStyle property in square brackets: wStyle[Item, ByPosition].
